Globalstar has signed an agreement with AeroAstro, a leading developer of microsatellite systems and components, to purchase seven new simplex data appliques. The new appliques will reside in various Globalstar gateways around the world, allowing the service provider to continue expanding availability of its simplex-based asset tracking and monitoring solutions. Globalstar simplex data asset tracking and monitoring solutions deliver reliable digital data communications for remote sensing and monitoring applications. Small-footprint satellite telemetry devices can be installed in fixed or mobile assets allowing packet-switched data to be sent automatically on a time or event-driven basis. Globalstar satellite data solutions are ideal for industries operating in remote locations where alternative communications systems are unavailable or prohibitively expensive. Globalstar is currently finalizing the location of the seven new appliques, with installation scheduled to commence in the first quarter of 2006.
